supports OS X 10.10 or later.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
(If you are using a package system such as MacPorts or Homebrew, I<br class="gmail_msg">
recommend using that, though.)<br class="gmail_msg">

As always, Ubuntu PPA builds of the latest source are available at<br class="gmail_msg">

<br class="gmail_msg">
Notes to packagers:<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
* FreeBSD should no longer require special configuration to build within<br class="gmail_msg">
ports, and should correctly detect either the base OpenSSL or OpenSSL<br class="gmail_msg">
from ports.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
* For OS X, Mosh now has a runtime check for the weak clock_gettime<br class="gmail_msg">
symbol, and should not require special efforts to build functional<br class="gmail_msg">
executables when OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is set.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Areas we'd like to see testing ('make distcheck', mostly) in before we<br class="gmail_msg">
do a final release:<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
* Fedora<br class="gmail_msg">
* RHEL 5 and 6<br class="gmail_msg">
* the OS X binary .pkg, especially on older OS X versions<br class="gmail_msg">
* OS X compiling from source<br class="gmail_msg">
* OpenBSD<br class="gmail_msg">
* FreeBSD<br class="gmail_msg">
* NetBSD<br class="gmail_msg">
* Chrome<br class="gmail_msg">
* ARMv7 and AArch64 platforms with NEON vector processing enabled<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Your testing is very unlikely to prove Mosh to be free of bugs, but your<br class="gmail_msg">
testing will help us make 1.3.0 a better release. Please report any<br class="gmail_msg">
issues you find on Github; we can be found on IRC at<br class="gmail_msg">
<irc://<a href="http://irc.freenode.net/mosh" rel="noreferrer" class="gmail_msg" target="_blank">irc.freenode.net/mosh</a>>.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
I hope to make the next Mosh release more feature oriented, bringing<br class="gmail_msg">
significant new functionality. SSH agent forwarding is still high on<br class="gmail_msg">
the list.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
The Mosh team thanks you for your help.<br class="gmail_msg">
